AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 4411

AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 4411 by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following:

"Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by adding Section 16-196 as follows:

(35 ILCS 200/16-196 new)

Sec. 16-196. Statewide property tax exemption database. On and after January 1, 2023, the Property Tax Appeal Board shall establish and maintain a statewide database containing information related to property tax exemptions granted for property in the State. The database shall be publicly accessible and searchable by county, property address, property index number, taxpayer name, and type of exemption applied to the property. Each chief county assessment officer shall cooperate with the Property Tax Appeal Board for the purpose of providing current information for inclusion in the database. Each chief county assessment officer shall, prior to granting any exemption, check the statewide database to verify that the taxpayer is not receiving an additional exemption that would disqualify the taxpayer from receiving an exemption for the subject property.

Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon becoming law.".
